Overview
The FTX RALLY FRONT C HUB CARRIER 10 (L/R) is an essential replacement or upgrade component designed specifically for the FTX MK2RS 1/10th brushless rally car. This precision-engineered hub carrier is a critical suspension component that directly affects your rally car's handling, stability and cornering performance. Whether you're running a ready to run RC car UK or a competition-grade machine, having quality replacement parts like this hub carrier ensures your vehicle maintains peak performance during every rally run.
Hub carriers are the mounting points where your suspension arms connect to the steering knuckle and wheel assembly. The FTX Rally MK2RS Front C Hub Carrier is engineered to maintain precise alignment and reduce flex during aggressive cornering and high-speed manoeuvres. This left and right pair is manufactured to exacting tolerances by FTX, a recognised brand in the electric RC car market, ensuring perfect fitment and consistent handling characteristics.
This is not a cosmetic upgrade—it's a fundamental performance component. If your original hub carrier has cracked, worn, or become damaged through normal use or crash damage, replacing it with a genuine FTX part is the best way to restore your rally car to factory specifications. Rally racing demands precision and reliability, and these hub carriers deliver both. Purchase with confidence knowing you're buying an authentic FTX spare part that's fully compatible with your FTX MK2RS 1/10th brushless rally car.

Technical Performance
The FTX RALLY FRONT C HUB CARRIER 10 (L/R) represents quality component engineering designed specifically for 1/10th scale rally racing applications. Hub carriers are structural chassis components that must withstand lateral G-forces during cornering, vertical impacts during off-road driving, and torsional stress from acceleration and braking. FTX manufactures these carriers from high-strength materials engineered to maintain dimensional accuracy and structural integrity across thousands of rally runs. The design geometry is optimised for the FTX MK2RS suspension geometry, maintaining proper Ackermann steering angles, camber settings and toe-in alignment. When installed correctly as a matched pair (left and right), these hub carriers ensure your front end geometry remains true, which translates directly into predictable handling, reduced tyre wear, and improved cornering grip. The connection points are precisely machined to accept the suspension arms, steering rods, brake components and wheel bearing housings without any slop or play, which is essential for maintaining the precise control needed in competitive rally racing. Whether you're running a brushless electric RC rally car in UK club racing or high-speed backyard bashing, having quality hub carriers ensures every replacement or upgrade maintains the engineering integrity that FTX built into the MK2RS platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a hub carrier and why do I need it? — A hub carrier (also called a knuckle) is the component that connects your suspension arms to your wheels. It's where the steering rod, suspension arms and wheel bearing assembly all mount. If it cracks or breaks during a crash, you need to replace it to restore your car's handling and suspension geometry. Hub carriers are structural parts that directly affect how your rally car handles in corners.
- Is this hub carrier compatible with my FTX MK2RS rally car? — Yes, absolutely. This FTX RALLY FRONT C HUB CARRIER 10 is specifically engineered for the FTX MK2RS 1/10th brushless rally car, and FTX confirm direct compatibility with both the white (FTX5470W) and black (FTX5470BK) versions of this vehicle. Simply verify your model number and you'll have perfect fitment.
- Do I need both the left and right carriers? — This package includes both left and right hub carriers in a single purchase. While you might only need one if you've damaged just one side, many builders replace both sides at once to ensure perfectly matched suspension geometry on both ends. For best handling consistency, matched pairs are recommended.
- Is this part suitable for beginners? — Replacement is a moderate-difficulty task that requires basic tools and mechanical knowledge. If you're comfortable removing suspension arms and steering components, you can install these hub carriers. However, after installation it's important to verify your alignment and suspension geometry are correct, which some beginners might find challenging. Experienced RC car builders will find installation straightforward.
- What tools do I need to replace a hub carrier? — You'll need standard hex drivers, a small Phillips screwdriver, and possibly a vice or work stand to hold the vehicle. The exact tools depend on which suspension components you need to remove, but most builders use tools they already have in their RC workshop.
- How do I know if my hub carrier is damaged? — Visible cracks, breaking, or deformation are obvious signs. You might also notice handling issues like pulling to one side, uneven tyre wear, or a feeling of looseness in the suspension. If your car has been crashed hard, it's worth inspecting the hub carriers for damage even if the vehicle still seems to drive okay, as internal stress fractures might not be immediately visible.
